The third single from the album 'Dance, Animal!' is currently on rotation on Iheartradio[11] and running for Louder's grand prize of the 3rd International Summer League Tournament of bands[12][13]
The album got mostly positive reviews[14]. The music news site Abrasive Noise gave it a positive review: “Curses” is mysterious in its nature and I’m still not sure what it is trying to tell me. Whatever its message may be, I enjoyed the journey of listening to something that is outside of the box and thought provoking.[15]
